COSTS TO PARENTS

Our school tries to keep all costs to parents as low as possible.

We will sometimes ask for a donation towards the cost of a school trip.

 

Below you will find an example of some of the costs we might ask you for: 

ItemCostExplanation

School Dinners

£2.20 per day

All infant children receive a free school meal through 

the Universal Infant Free School Meal scheme.

Children on Benefit Free School Meals are entitled to a Free School Meal.

Breakfast Club

£1.10 per day

All children on benefit FSM will not be charged for breakfast club.

 

Catholic School 

Buildings

Fund

£6 per term

School gets charged per pupil from Salford Diocese each year and this money is used to fund large scale building works.

We ask parents to contribute towards the cost of this so that the school can use the money saved to buy more equipment for the children to use in school.

School Trips

 

As part of our curriculum we will be going on  school trips that will enrich your child's learning. School will be subsidising or offer these trips for free in order to keep the cost to parents at a minimum. You will only be asked to contribute to no more than 2 trips a year.

After

School

Clubs

 

It is rarely that we ask you to pay for any after school clubs, although sometimes we use outside agencies i.e. Blackburn Rovers which we have to pay so we might ask you for a small fee to cover this tuition.

Non Uniform Days

Donation

At the end of each term we have a non-uniform day and ask for children to donate which we then donate to CAFOD.

Infant Milk

£4 per term

All infant children receive milk each day, The cost to  parents is £4 a term (£12 for the year) Milk is payable for children the term after the child turns 5. Children entitled to FSM do not need to pay.
